# Kid Games vs Matific

The clearest difference is rating: Matific at 4.7 against Kid Games's 4.2. Kid Games's advantage is ratings volume (98K vs 1.2K) and review sentiment (77% vs 60%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Kid Games sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Matific sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Matific holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kid Games has 98K ratings behind it against 1.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Kid Games's written reviews are positive against 60% of Matific's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Kid Games ships an update monthly, Matific every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
